The ZL-1 was legal for A/SA before AA/SA was created. It is at 7.15, so it's a natural AA car, being between 7.0 and 7.5. If it were 6.99 or lower, it'd be a AA only car. It's a tank in A though, 3560 + 170 for the driver, is 3730.

Incorrect. It's a AA only car with a factor below 7.5. Just like 08 CJs at 7.22 and 7.41

I see Bob Shaw is still playing the AHFS game at only .935 under.

Ed,

Detroit hasn't built a carbureted car since the mid 80s. So, you are wanting the class to be nostalgia Stock? EFI hardly ruined Stock. I love how you cry babies make blanket statements that don't really make any sense. One car was a run-away in the 90s, the LT-1, but there were plenty of other EFI combos that got spanked by carb cars.

Yes, it's 2010. Strap the feed bags on, then let them all run....we've got some great new cars out there, and there's a bunch of new Sheriffs ready to roll into town...... WJ

Not at all.Just have them factored to within the next county that's all.
Plain and simple.These cars(DP/CJ)would just be another car in S/S.The factories
wanted them to stick out and NHRA whored themselves (like they did with the FI
cars in the 90s)only it's more obvious now.If I had aA-E car I guess you could call it crying on my part.But I only have a lowly T car.Do you hear me crying about Bob's car?BTW
what make and class is your car?

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, not only do they get HP on Monday but NHRA should also use the runs at the end of the period (Nov.- Dec.). So they should get a double wammy!

I think if they get auto horsepower after they run a second under, they don't count it at the end of the year. So unless they go a second under twice after this weekend, they won't get hit at the end of the year.
